My Russian is not that good with music but I think I heard the words "polnaya zhopa" in the song Erasure posted. Could anyone translate it? I just don't have the time now.
It is used as slang, but literally it means "fat a**", but it is used 99% of the time as slang meaning something like someone is in total trouble, "total a**" as they would say.

I was afraid that someone will ask me)))
But, yes, that's exactly what they are saying "total a***" (meaning "total disaster")
It's a remake of popular Glukoza'a song, and the refrain IN ORIGINAL VERSION goes like "Dance Russia, Europe cry, I have the best-looking a** in the world," but DNR guys changed the lyrics of the song of course, and the refrain now goes; "Dance Russia, Europe cry, and Ukraine is... in total trouble"

Boxus...
Not that it matters, but these are the peculiarities of Russian language;
"polnaya ( polnyi) is a.. er... polite reference to someone being fat, ("plump" you can say, or "slightly overweight,") and it's not used in combination with such slang as "a**" (There would be a different adjective used in this particular combination.)
So yes, "total trouble" would be the only correct translation in this case.
Really, you Russkies, you have absolutely THE BEST dance music in the dormitories where the African students are! You want to PAR-TAY? Go hang out with the foreign students! You're missing out. Seriously.

Rather khart bass than rap or *********************************************** country music.
That is more suitable for a lazy summer Sunday afternoon. Not maybe in this rainy 6C/43F Friday evening.
